Question
Answer
P wave   show
🗑
show straight line from p-q  
🗑
show ventricle depolarization  
🗑
show ventricle repolarization  
🗑
P wave atrial contraction   show
🗑
QRS ventricular contraction   show
🗑
coronary arteries bring what to heart   show
🗑
show *left main coronary artery --> circumflex branch --> LAD left anterior descending *right coronary artery  
🗑
if heart doesn't get enough 02, will switch to anaerobic metabolism which activates this rsn   show
🗑
ischemia   show
🗑
show tissue death due to lack of 02 (blood supply)  
🗑
show a tear in endothelium/plaque that then clots  
🗑
myocardial infarction   show
🗑
show decreased pumping ability  
🗑
Right sided heart failure s/s   show
🗑
Left sided heart failure s/s   show
🗑
Tx of heart failure, want to increase pumping ability or tx symptoms   show
🗑
show heart rate x stroke volume *volume ejected per minue  
🗑
cardiac output is how many liters/minute   show
🗑
show 1-preload 2-contractility 3-afterload  
🗑
show amount of blood entering ventricle during diastole (Frank Starling law)  
🗑
show within limits, the greater the volume into heart during diastole, the greater the volume out during systole (not true during heart failure)  
🗑
what increases preload?   show
🗑
What decreases preload?   show
🗑
contractility defn   show
🗑
what increases contractility?   show
🗑
show *decreased Ca *barbiturates *old age *MI which leaves scar tissue *heart failure  
🗑
if i increase contractility, what happens to stroke volume   show
🗑
show resistance the ventricle has to overcome in order to eject its blood resistance ventricle has to overcome to eject its blood  
🗑
show decreases, it has to push harder to eject same amount of blood  
🗑
show decrease sv  
🗑
show factors increasing after load  
🗑
show *vasodilating drugs will decrease resistance thereby decreasing afterload (which will lower bp)  
🗑
factors effecting heart rate   show
🗑
input to cardiovascular center from where?   show
🗑
show *cardiac accelerator by symp nerves *cardiac decelerator by CN X vagus psymp  
🗑
show  
🗑
show *cardiac output *peripheral resistance  
🗑
show BP=CO x PR  
🗑
show 1. lumen diameter 2. viscosity of blood 3. vessel length bwo # of capillaries which actually create resistance (as in obese people have more capillaries, why theres increase pv, inc pv --> bp  
🗑
show CO x PR (cardiac output x periph resis)  
🗑
show 1/3 systolic bp + 2/3 diastolic bp *must be >60 for adequate brain/tissue perfusion  
🗑
show pressure on artery walls during ventricular systole  
🗑
diastolic bp is   show
🗑
show how much blood is out there  
🗑
diastolic bp indicates   show
🗑
show *medulla oblongata is location of basomotor center of medulla oblongata bwo glossopharyngeal and vagus nerves *also RAA, ADH involved  
🗑
orthostatic decrease in bp temporarily decreases what?   show
🗑
circulatory shock defn   show
🗑
3 categories of circ shock   show
🗑
show 1. anaphylactic (histamine binds to vasodil) 2. neurogenic (withdraw of symp ns, most likely in spinal cord injury of thoracolumbar where symp nerves are) 3. Toxic shock causes vasodil  
🗑
cardiogenic shock is a   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
